The new History of Bitcoin book changed the frequency in the room at nostr:npub1key55ax33gkl50uqemvl4khrtqrhzm7wzpc7fhseutt5ddkcwcrqgxlt3h last night. It’s a truly stunning work of art. You can bid on a one-of-a-kind edition of the book here: https://shop.historyofbitcoin.io/first-edition All proceeds go to nostr:npub17cyatz6z2dzcw6xehtcm9z45m76lde5smxdmyasvs00r4pqv863qrs4ml3 image image image image

27 years ago today, I went to my first punk rock show. I saw The Bouncing Souls at a venue called Tramps in New York City. In the years that followed, I learned from that band, as well as many others in the DIY music scene, how important the spirit of doing things without permission is. These bands put out their own records, booked their own tours, and wrote their own music - music than emanated directly from the depths of their hearts. Without having gone to that show and gotten involved in the punk rock / hardcore / DIY scene in the years that followed, I don’t think I ever would have truly grasped what #Bitcoin and #Nostr are and why they are important. I’m immensely grateful to all the bands and people I learned from in that scene, as not only did they help me find my purpose earlier on in life, but they primed me to notice and embrace two of the greatest technologies for human flourishing ever created. So, on this Thanksgiving Eve, I’d like to thank the Bouncing Souls, the punk rock community worldwide, and, of course, all of you in the Nostrverse who carry on this spirit of permissionlessness. Onward 🫡

Last night, nostr:npub1key55ax33gkl50uqemvl4khrtqrhzm7wzpc7fhseutt5ddkcwcrqgxlt3h launched its second location, based in the heart of Washington, D.C. The new venue, which will also serve as the home base for the nostr:npub15kxltm8gws78p85fc5frn5yv6cd03k3hwp7r2r7s6ts4aq5qrags88nl20, is a bigger, bolder version of the more modest, yet beloved, NYC institution.

The situation in Jamaica remains dire in the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa. Banking infrastructure is down and aid agencies are dragging their feet in delivering supplies. Bitcoin has become a financial lifeline for the victims of the storm, thanks in part to nostr:nprofile1qqsqqqqqq879yfza9k5kqzdksflgjm2c8mj33xhzv5ya7lk9re0w6ggpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgkwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejqpndnu6 (Link to donate in comments.) https://www.forbes.com/sites/frankcorva/2025/11/20/jamaicas-first-native-bitcoin-app-is-helping-with-hurricane-relief/
